Vac System - SAFARI Trek 2002 Owner's Manual

WARNING: Do not connect the shore line to any source other than a RV approved
120 VAC S
The 120 VAC system consists of the shore power, generator and inverter. The shore line
connection is the primary source for power. The shore line or the generator powers all
120 VAC items in your coach. In the event no power is available from the shore line or
generator, the inverter will provide power to the system for such items as the television,
VCR, or sound system. The system is protected from overloads by a set of system
breakers and fuses.
The 120 VAC shore line system works via a power transfer switch. From this transfer
switch, power is routed to the entire 120 VAC system. The inverter circuit is powered up
through relays in the inverter itself, which then furnish 120 VAC power to the two circuits.
The system will take power from the most appropriate source automatically. The inverter
remote switch must be on for the inverter to furnish power to the 120 VAC system. When
dry camping, it is wise to only turn on the inverter when it is needed. Leaving the inverter
on at all times will result in drained batteries.
